* GtkCountingBloomFilter:
*
* This implements a counting bloom filter. A bloom filter is a space-efficient
* probabilistic data structure that is used to test whether an element may be
* a member of a set.
* The Wikipedia links provide a lot more details into how and why this data
* structure works and when to use it.
*
* This implementation is based on similar implementations in web browsers, because it's
* original use case is the same: Making CSS lookups fast.
*
* As such, the number of bits is hardcoded to 12 and the elements in the set
* are 16bit hash values.
* It is possible to use 32bit hash values or a different number of bits, should this
* be considered useful.
*
* See: [Bloom filter](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bloom_filter),
